Wages in Ireland and sentIand.

md wages low all over Ireland and scotland, and l have visited many factor. les and talked with both managers and laOorer. The hours are longer. the work m many cases very hard, and the wages very low. Rents are high in comparison with the accommodations. and the only thing l find cheaper than with us is clothes. Good food costs the same. and meats are fully as high The laboring classes live on a cheaper kind of food than our workingmen do, and they have less Of it. Whole families often live in one or two rooms. and these cost all the way from S2J tO 50 per year. They live m the cities in flats, and their conven- fences are very few The wages of me ehanics and skilled labor run from Sl a day to s2 day, and it k a very good man indeed who gets the latter. A newspaper proprietor in Dublin told me that he could get good reporters for from SJ to Ss per week. and they would be shoEihand men and well educated. The managing editor of the largest paper m Ireland, in Dublin city. a place as large as Cincinnati, gets only S2. 900 a year, and his salary is considered a large one.
 saw men working on the road in Ire land breaking stone at twenty five cents a day. and many of the women in the fac tories of Belfast get no more and work from n. m. 10 6 p. m.
 Here laborers get from $4.J0 to g. per week and board themselves Carpenters. paiuters. coopers. and masons earn about S'.JJ per week. and shoemakers the same The plumbers receive only S7. 70 per week in Glasgow, and tailors only S'-2J. Many boys and little girls are eu- ployed in the factories. and the whole family works to keep the wolf from the door. Still, under all these disadvan- iages. .he Scotch blood makes fortunes. and q ere are numerous instances of poor boys becoming wealthy right here amid :%ch surroundings.-FIa G.

Club politics will rupture friendships of many years standing. Nothing is more potent as a disorganizer of existing in- tiIlacies in a club than an election ren- dered bitter by personal interests. Men forget their friends, take up with anybody who happens to be of their own political belief, and can think and talk of nothing else b..iore election day but the affairs of the cl 7b. The causes for revolution in the management Of clubs are as trivial as the first causes of war. \ member orders Foached eggs on toast, and tells the waiter tO have the toast served dry on a separate plate from the eggs.

The Rnrl,er., saint.

Barbers have a saint as well as other people In France their patron is St Louis and the annual fete day k the 2Jth of August. Barhers have always been an important element in France, but fra ternity in other countries may probably also sport saint. "TOndOr' was the name given tO the original members of the profession in France-a name now re- served to the dog barber Then they were called 'fraters" and soon after became the barber-chirurgeonS.

IHR most urgent want oi Pima coun- ty in the form of legislative enactment. IS the prompt passage of an act author izing the funding of its inde5te iuess The warrants now outstanding are draw ing ten per cent, interest per aunum, and are discounted so heavily from their face value that the county actually pays two or three prices for everything pur- chased. High rates of interest are ac tuslly consuming the bulk of the rev enue from taxation, and the direct re- suit by the consequent depreciation ID the value of county scrip almost stops the wheels of government. Relief must be had in the way of funding the pres ent indebtedness of he county at 6 low rate of interest, which will have the ef. feet Of bringing the public fiusnees to a cssa basis, and the b"srd of supervisors will be very careful to keep all future expenses safely within the income. Un- less this is done early in the session of the present leg!slsture, the ending of the current quarter will practically stop the county government. under the provisions of the1 Harrison bill. Our representatives should lose no time ID providing such n necessary measure ar, what is probsblys better plan, the new board of supervisors shouli cOun- sel with the members of the old beard aud those who are familiar with the financial sff ,irs of the couaty, and upon the data evolved. cause bill to be care fully drafted to meet the necessities, which one of our representatives could iutroduee ID the legislature. There is DO time to be lost in doing this, but il must not be hastily done. There are excellently framed bills of kind to be found in the ssion laws oi California, some of which have been thoroughly tested in the courts snd found without defect, from which a proper bill could be easily drafted. If the supervisors Wlll cause such bsll to be framed, our representatives will gladly champion its passage through the legislature ID season to afford the relief that is sbso- lutelT necessary.

Heavy and sour bread or biscuit have a vast influence through the digestive organs upou the measure of health We euicy. How important tO our present happiness and future usefulness tbe blessings of health and a sound constl- tuition are, we can only realize when ve have lost them, and when it ia too late to repair the damage. And yei, not withstanding these facts, thousands of persons daily jeopardize not only theii health, but theIr Iyes, and the hesltbs and lives of others, by using articles ID the preparation Of their food the purity and healthfulness of which they know nothing. Perhaps s few cents may have been saved, or It may have been more convenient to obtain the articles used. and the housekeeper take' the respoDs- ibihty and posnbly will never know the mischief that has been wrought.
